Introduction to Music Making (Adult Group Instruction)
This is a 10 week course designed for adults that have either never played music before or those who played years ago and are looking to reacquaint themselves with the hobby. The lessons are held once per week at our studio. By the end of the ten weeks you will have seven songs under your belt, you'll be playing with both hands and you'll be reading elementary music!
Intermediate Musicianship (Adult Group Instruction)
Over 80% of the students that complete Introduction to Music Making advance to Intermediate Musicianship. This 10 week course covers topics including advanced chord structuring, amateur arranging techniques and prelude and postlude construction (amongst other topics). Our intermediate students really start to get a feel for how music is actually designed!
Continuing Musicianship (Adults Group Instruction)
This is where it really gets interesting. In our continuing musicianship program you have control over your own schedule. We offer these lessons throughout the week during both the day as well as the evening and you can join us for as many as you'd like at no additional charge. Do you like Tuesday evenings? We have you covered. Does Wednesday afternoon work well next week? We'll be here awaiting your arrival. You receive our schedule at the beginning of each month and then you decide how you'd like the lessons to fit into your day. Among many of the topics covered, a popular one has always been, "how to fake it like the pros do" which is filled with "tricks of the trade". You'll sound like you've been playing for years before you know it!
Private Instruction (Children/Teens/Adults)
Is learning alone more your thing? We can help with that. We offer weekly lessons for either a half hour or an hour and during that time we can structure a program that specifically meets your personal musical goals. These lessons are generally open to ages 7+.
Research and experience show that students who study music develop:
* Stronger focus, memory, and listening skills.
* Improved academic habits and time management
* Confidence through goal-setting and acheivement
* Emotional expression and creativity in a positive, structured environment
Most importantly, music becomes a source of joy and accomplishment--something that grows with them over time.
Every student is paired with the same dedicated teaching staff each week. That consistency allows for:
* Strong teacher-student relationships
* Personalized lesson planning
* Clear long-term progress and goal tracking
Performance and Recitals
We offer recitals throughout the year to give students the opportunity to perform, build confidence, and celebrate their progress.
* Participation is not compulsory, but strongly encouraged
* Recitals are supportive, positive experiences designed to help students grow and create lasting memories
